On Ice

Location

As far as I know love is about devotion, not some temporary potion.
Don't get me high just to have me withdraw, you're dose is never enough
and you know it.
Is it that easy to keep a human heart on ice? I was completely unaware.
Even with gashes at every ventricle and artery, somehow I just can't bleed it out.
Your beat is always in the heart of me.
But why give 100 when you only serve me 10?
Could you be sending me a message that I can't decode . . .
Or maybe one you don't want to know?
Love is unusual and cruel, love is all too familiar and a duel between two.
Exactly what it shouldn't be.
The time is now or never, apart or together.
You can't keep a human heart on ice forever.
